    Short.io
    Short.cm is best suited where you need to type something with a character limit and you can't afford to add long links. Instead, you can shorten the link using Short.cm and paste it into the messaging app. Example: Twitter has a character limit for tweets. Short.cm is less appropriate for apps like Gmail, Slack, etc that have an inbuilt hyperlinking mechanism making Short.cm's usage is very minimal. (My personal experience).

    Most Suited:
    1. Users can gain free experience as start free option is available.
    2. Links are shortened quickly, I mean there is no other nonsense fill this or that, etc , i have used another product earlier which took 10-15 min to fill a form after that the link got short.
    3. The generated report is well-formatted.
    4. Alias name of the link is a great feature
    Less suited:
    1. API formats for a developer are less flexible.

    • Feature related support need to be provided like a chatbot or something.
    • In pixel feature, UI looks pretty old.
    • Date format should be more flexible in API not just "Y-m-d"

    Alternatives Considered
    Short.io
    Short.io is much more versatile compared to Bitly, in addition to having the option to change the language to Spanish, Short.io has better accessibility, and more options to provide people looking for a page that provides them with information as vital as the clicks on the links, being the strongest reason to choose short that has Spanish language and is easier to use.

    In simple words, I can say that Toinsh is a collection of features that are offered by two different software AppsFlyer for branded links data gathering and Bitly or TinyURL for link shortening. If you have both of those use cases and do not want to purchase high-end and high-priced software you can go for Toinsh. in summary, it is "Best of both worlds but some limitations"
